Meals Creek Items.

Farmers are about done laying by their
crops. They have worked faithfully dur
ing the past few months, and well deserve
little recreation. If seasons continue
favorable they will be amply rewarded for
their labors.
Mr.. J. II. Harbin will sing at Meals
Creek on Sunday the oath inst, at nine
o'clock. Mr.. Harbin is fine musician,
and will doubtless attract large crowd
Mr.. Silas NJ. Major has the largest and
finest piece of bottom corn in this section.
Mr.. Major is one of our largest and most
successful young farmers. He knows how
to cconomize, and never allows his expen-
ses to overrun the profits. He keeps q
memorandum of what he buys and sells,
and at the end of the year knows exactly
how lie stands. We need more just such
farmers.
Rev. D. w. diott will preach at Meals
Creek next Sunday morning at eleven
o'clock, on the subject of prohibition. Mr..
Hiotts reputation as an able speaker
insures him Well-filled house.
Revs. Baxter Hayes preached most for
chile sermon at Long Branch on last first
Sunday, on the subject Of prohibition, and
it seemed to be very effective.
We attended church at Shady Grove last
Saturday, and heard very interesting
sermon preached by Rev. NJ. MCGEE. They
are busily engaged making preparation for
the Sunday School Institute, which con-
venes there next Friday, the 18th inst.
We found crops very fine, though needing
rain.
Watermelons are getting ripe, and the
small boy thumps all that have shed the
blossom.
1t was our pleasure to attend the exhibi-
ton given by Mr.. w. P. Holland school,
at Lebanon last Friday. The exercises
were very interesting, and did credit to
both teachers and pupils. The exhibition
was o success in every particular.

patrick,s Military 1nstltnte.

It is with great pleasure that we an
nounce that the Board of Directors of tho
Anderson Educational Association have
leased the University property to Capt. ].
B. Patrick, the able and popular Princi-
pal of the Greenville Military Institute.
He will at orce become resident of
Anderson. His school will be discontin-
ued at Greenville, and about the middle
of September will be opened in this city,
aud will be known as Patrick's Military
Institute. 1t is also with pleasure that
we announce that Prof. w. J. Ligon will
be associated with Capt. Patrick, who
will also be assisted by his son, Prof. J.
NJ. Patrick.
This assures Anderson most excellent
male Academy and it is the duty of every
citizen who feels any interest in the
future welfare of our city to give this
school his most earnest and cordial sup.
port. Capt. Patrick's reputation as
teacher is well-known throughout the
State, as his school at Greenville has been
literally patronized from almost every
section Of the State. This patronage will
follow him to Anderson, and with lib
eral local patronage we will soon have
school that will be credit not only to our
city, but to the State.
Anderson is pleasant, healthy city, and
parents can find no training school any
where in the State where such combined
advantages are offered, in our opinion, for
educating young men. Capt. Patrick is a
thorough mathematician and polished
scholar in literature, while Prof Ligon
is one of the finest linguists in the State.
Capt. Patrick was Professor in the Cit
adel, and Prof. Ligon is graduate of the
South Carolina College. Each of them
has had over thirty years of successful
experience in teaching young men, and
in addition they will be assisted by Prof.
j. M. Patrick, g young gentleman of
fine attainments and popular manners,
who will be valuable addition to the
corps of able teachers of this Institute.
These excellent advantages are still
further enhanced by the natural advan-
tages of the city. With climate as fine
as can be found in the State, excellent
church advantages and fine social sur
roundings, there is nothing lacking to
make Anderson the location of the lead
ing training school for young men in the
State.

The July number of The Cotton Plant
is more than usually attractive. In addi-
ton to large amount of seasonabie mat
ter by the editor. it contains a fine likeness
of the late Hon. j. Wyatt Aiken with an
admirable sketc of his life, and mass
of other matter covering variety of sub
iects of interest to the farmers. The
Grange, the Farm, the Household, the
Poultry Yard, and other departments are
well filled, while in the Farm and Indus
trial Notes are brought together various
matters touching agricultural and indus
trial progress in South Carolina. with an
occasional pertinent comment by the
editor. The Cotton Plant is printed at
Greenville at the low price of 60 cents
year. Write for specimen copy.
There are few chronic grum blers in
Anderson, and whenever new enterprise
of any sort is mentioned, they at once dis
courage it, and say it won't pay. Such
men are drawback to the welfare and
prosperity of any place, and the sooner
they are out of the way the better. An
derson is one of the most solid towns OF
the State, and it is the duty of every citi-
zen to encourage every effort to build itup
or increase its population. Let our young
men keep wide awake. 1t is to them that
the future destiny of the city appeals.
Don't sleep while there is thing you can
do. When stranger comes here show
him around, and make him feel that you
have an interest in him and would like to
have him become one Of rs. When you
meet one of these chronic grumblers, try
to talk him into good humor, and if he
persists in grumbling, kick him.
Last Thursday afternoon an eight-ycar-
old negro girl, residing on Mr.. R. @. An
derson's plantation, in Broadway Town
ship, met with most terrible accident,
which caused her death. A fire had been
kindled around an oven In the fireplace
to cook some bread, but the fire had gone
out and the girl was instructed to rekindle
it. To make quick fire, she secured
can of kerosene oil and was in the act of
pouring the oil on the fire, when it sud-
denly blazed up, exploding the can and
throwing the oil over her clothes, which
ignited. The girl ran out of the house to
her brother, who was near by, and be sue
ceeded in getting her clothing off of her,
but not before she was terribly burned.
The skin on her breast and legs came off
with her clothing. DIR. McFall was called
to see the unfortunate girl, and did every
thing possible to alleviate her sufferings.
She survived until IL o'clock that night,
when death came to her relief.

We have had splendid rains. Crops and
prohibition are on boom. If our farmers
are heard to boast little over the ilatter-
ing prospects Of their crops, We think it
perfectly allowable, for surely they have
performed their part nobly, and if no dis
astcr overtakes them in the future, they
will be most graciously rewarded with an
abundant harvest at gathering time.
Opposition to prohibition is giving away
rapidly, many persons vino, few weeks
ago, openly expressed themselves as being
opposed to prohibition, now say that if
they do not vote for it, they will not vote
against it. This change in the minds OF
the people is due, in large measure, to
sermons preached by L. M. King, Of Geor.

Hollands Store Item a.

BY invitation, Rev. II. NJ. Allen will
preach on prohibition at Ruhamah on
next Sunday night. Rev. W. H. King
preached an excellent sermon on the
same theme at Shiloh few Sundays ago.
His sermon was well received, and no
doubt will bring forth fruit in due season.
As the time for the election approaches,
the people seem to become more and
more enthused on tho subject. The fence
riders are tumbling off on the right side
almost daily, and the prospect for good
majority is splendid.
Rev. Mr.. Attaway touched on the sub.
ject of temperance on last Sunday in his
sermon at Ruhamab, in which he put in
some good licks.
We have had fine rains in this section
recently. Crops of all kinds are BOOM
ing. Our farmers will about finish up
their lahors this week, and then trust to
Providence for the result, which from all
appearances now, will meet their most
sanguine hopes.
, Mr.. ]. S. Scales, who Las been confined
to his room for about year, is gradually
growing worse, and from all appearances
cannot last much longer.
Mr.. Ben West, who lost child few
weeks past, has another quite i'll at this
time. We trust that the little one will be
restored to health, and Mr.. West and
family be spared double attliction.
Mr.. David Tippins and wife have the
sympathy of this vicinity in the death of
their little boy, which occurred on Friday,
the 1st of July.
Rev. w. H. King will conduct meet
ing at the Grove Church, commencing
the 5th Sunday in this month. Every
thing favorable, it will, perhaps, go on for
several days.
Rev. B. NJ. Pack, who has been resting
in order to recuperate his health for the
last month, will be at his post again at
Shiloh on the Fourth Sunday evening,
and Saturday before at IL o'clock q. nj.
Let the members try to be present one
and all as we'll as the community in gen.
eral, as Mr.. Pack will preach on an inter-
esting subject both days. Those who
fail to be present will miss treat.

The Normal Institute opened at Will
liamston on Monday with about one hum
dred teachers present, aud no doubt by
this time this number has increased con-
siderably. The County is well represent
ed. The Institute will continue for two
weeks, and the exercises throughout will
be exceedingly interesting. Those of our
teachers who are not present have missed
a most excellent opportunity to improve
themselves. Col. Clinkscales has labored
hard to make the Institute success, and
no doubt he now feels that his efforts have
not been in vain. The citizens of Will
liamston are leaving nothing undone that
will tend to in crease the pleasure and
comfort of the teachers during the session.

Life in the London Clubs.

DOStuh iIduscllpt.
The number Of clubs in London has in
creased 50 enormously Of late, and the mem
bership Of all, old and new, has been so
steadily maintained at its maximum, las
rule, that the citizen belonging to the slow
er middle class" o. to any superposed social
stratum who does not belong to at least two
of these Institutions is person of distinct
ion. 1t has always been claimed for Eng
land that it is peculiarly the land Of homes.
But in the cities, and particularly In Lon
don, the family circle sees less OF the sturdy
Briton, apparently, than does the whistquar-
tet or group of baccarat players at the club.
Time was when the club district was con-
fined within what would be called in London
very narrow limits. Within ten years its
area has been so widely extended that II can
hardly be defined without giving map OF all
that is now known in London. In the course
of this decade at least twenty thousand In
diyiduals have been introduced for the first
time to the comforts and conveniences OF
English club life, and probably the names of
a score of new clubs have been added TO the
list of establishments where the member can
enjoy the seclusion Of home with the luxuries
and the cost of belonging to them vary i'm
mensely. Nor do they all offer the same or
even similar conyenienees. The London
club, In fact, so far resembles the family
that its internal economy Is entirely regu-
lated to conform to the requirements and in
elinations Of the members as a whole; and
this Is SC. generally understood that no one
thinks OF applying for membership In 0 club,
the customs, and more especially the kitchen
and the cellar Of which are not known 10
him. Several of the clubs have fine libraries,
q few have collections of choice art works,
and many are literally supplied with news
papers and magazines, though only one is
known TO have liberal supply Of foreign
